our fishing treaty which was
framed by representatives. OF
Great Britain and United States in 1878.
We consider that We haYe only acted a.
thst treaty comedies we may. The people
OF the United States ought to be willing
to allow us the treaty rights which their
own representatives granted. The Cana
dian government has acted according to
law and it has referred It's acts and reasons
therefor TO the Imperial government o.
Great Britain. 1t sees no reasons to
change its views, no matter what may take
place In other countries
"Then you are willing to say that Can
ada will not recede from its present POSI-
ton 80 "YeS, Canada's position is fixed,
regardless OF what may be done in the
United States"

RISES AND EXPLAINS.

AS published in the Advocate OF
last week, "W.P. BIS" explanation
of the law in relation to elections
may be correct, but is surely at va
rance with the practice heretofore
Of all administrations, and even
Of the present until just now, as
far as, at least, the opening of the
election returns for officers to be
commissioned is concerned. The
necessity for such a thing is new
discovery, and as a prudential
measure against abstraction, loss
or alteration" is an acknowledge
ment that the returns are not in
safe keeping. The record of votes
cast for each candidate and COM
missions prepared, can give no
further security, as far as the
right to Office is concerned, if all
are in the same keeping, because
the chance for abstraction. loss or
alteration is very little lessenod,
as long as perfect security is not
possible. This is a very thin plea
for opening the election returns
for commissioned officers, and is
poor extenuation Of the feeble right
under the law for doing scuh a
thing. II the law so provides, no
excuse other than the law need be
made. But the law is too vague
and indirect not to need doctor
ing, and the reasons given out
side Of the law are as much as an
acknowledgment that the law
gives no specific authority for
such thing.
